Ranboo is triggered into an enderwalk trance, leading to the death of his husband and the burning of his house. When he finds a mysterious line written in his journal, Ranboo suspects the terrorist Dream is behind the plot. But even the simplest ans...
His shoulders tensed and fists clenched, Ranboo stalked across the server and back towards towards the prison. "Stupid Fundy being a stupid waste of space," the sentient grumbled. "Couldn't even purge a dreamon right. Freaking amateur-"
"Oh, hi, Ranboo!"
The being drew himself out of his dark spiral of thoughts to meet- "Charlie?"
The translucent, green slime grinned ear to ear. "Hey! You remembered my name!"
"Uh, yeah. Sure did," the enderman halfling muttered. "Listen, Charlie, I'm kinda busy right now. Maybe we can talk-"
"Oh, yeah! Let's talk!" the enthusiastic slime cheered. "Are you still keeping an eye on Wilbur? Because I've been keeping an eye on him, too, and that guy's been up to some weird stuff."
That certainly got Ranboo's attention. "Like what?"
"Well, yesterday, I saw Wilbur talking to that Sam guy for a while, and get this- they let the green guy and the pig man go! Yowza!"
Ranboo couldn't believe it. Techno had been in prison? A flurry of questions stormed the being's mind as he tried to make sense of the situation: Why did Sam release Dream? Why was Techno even in the prison? Were the two rivals released together? And they didn't kill each other? Were they friends? Allies? What was going on?!
The sentient shook his head to rid himself of the intrusive thoughts, only to find that the slime was still talking. "-and so I asked him 'Where are you going?', and then he said 'To visit Philza Minecraft'. And then I-"
The blood of the enderman hybrid suddenly ran cold. Sam couldn't visit Phil. No one could visit Phil- the old man had made sure of it by keeping The Syndicate's location secret. Only a small handful of people knew where to find it, being Tubbo, Techno, Philza, and himself. Then again, Ranboo knew one other person who knew the elder's coordinates. The cave, the tunnels, the railroad- it had to be Wilbur Soot. And if Wilbur had sent Sam to The Syndicate, then that meant...the sentient gasped. His family was in danger.
Ranboo took the slime's hand into his own, and gave it a good, hard shake. "Thanks, Charlie, but I really gotta run," he said, rushing through his words. "Keep up the good work!" And with that, the enderman halfling was off, determined to stop the warden before it was too late.
When Ranboo finally arrived at The Syndicate, all was quiet upon the lands. A light snow had started to descend from the heavens, an ominous omen from the night of the fire; the sentient prayed that the Goddess of Death would spare him from another loss.
The sudden sound of crows cawing overhead echoed across the plains as Ranboo entered Phil's home. "Hello? Phil? Michael?" The usual pitter-patter of small, piglin feet was glaringly absent in the halls, causing the hybrid father's heart to constrict in panic. "Phil?! Michael!!"
The enderman halfling tore through every room of the house, desperately searching for any signs of life. The sentient's prayers were answered when, just outside Philza's bedroom, he heard a groan. (A/N: This isn't sexual, I swear! Please, keep reading!) Ranboo nearly ripped the door off its hinges entering the room; sadly, he was too late.
"Phil!!"
The old man laid still on his bed, one hand gracefully resting on his chest. Ranboo quickly took the man's pulse on his wrist, and collapsed to his knees in relief- Philza was alive. The sentient gave the man a quick exam to ensure his father in-law was okay. No cuts, no broken bones, everything seemed to be in order. Then, why wasn't he waking up?
Though the human did appear to be sleeping, Ranboo couldn't help but feel there was something off about Philza.
